Western Sector Written Statement (Planning Circular 8/91)
Source: St Johns Local Plan
1.1 The Island Strategic Plan - Western Sector (D) (Planning Circular 8/91) acknowledges the essentially rural character of the western part of the Island together with its villages and hamlets and includes St. John's in the list of principal settlements for further study (paragraph 1.8). The Planning Division initiated a public consultation programme for the St. John's Local Plan in January 1995 in recognition of this recommendation. This comprised the distribution of information leaflets to local residents, local amenity groups, the Parish Commissioners and Government Departments confirming that a local plan was being prepared and inviting comments on general issues of concern in St. John's. Amongst some of the key issues identified for further examination were the designation of part of the local plan area as a Conservation Area, the Tynwald Mills Centre, a landscape improvement programme and the possible identification of some limited areas for future growth.
